    I believe Parker will spend the first 3 rounds on the outside, using his speed to get in and out - punching to the body.

    As AJ tires in the mid rounds, I see Parker getting inside and hurting Joshua.

    Your thoughts?

    Maybe

    I personally expect AJ to win but I'm not writing off Parker, he can hit and Joshua isn't exactly iron jawed.

    You're assuming Parker doesn't gas first?

    I have more questions about Parker's tank than Joshua's.....

    Only one was getting tired out by Takam, and it wasn't Joshua.

    I'm guessing round 6-7 before Joshua begins getting frustrated and swinging wildly, after Parker is smugly smiling at the his punches that seem to have no effect on his chin.

    Parker then systemically breaks him down with lethal combinations which snaps Joshua's head back before he frantically spits his gum shield out in order to buy himself some time only in vain. The ref is more than happy to oblige in giving Joshua his extra breather to take in him into the later rounds. However his punch output begins to completely sap and Parker wraps the fight up with further devastating hooks and uppercuts on the inside, forcing the ref to the last thing he ever wished to have to do in his life, which is to wave the fight off for the benefit of Joshua's long term health and career.

    Yeah because that's not a pattern with AJ right? Wlad ould have stopped him if that iiot Vitali hadn't told him to go easy on him, Parker if he applies the right kind of pressure, and evades enough clean head shots, can push the pace, and cause that lummox to gas, and when that happens, yes, possibly KO him.

    Then the best man won.

    I can see Parker getting in and landing shots, I just don't see him getting out without being tagged. If Parker can handle Joshua's power it will be interesting.

    2 times Joshua gassed vs Whyte and Wlad was when he was going in for the kill after hurting or dropping his opponent. So unless those first 3 rounds Joshua is battering Parker it's unlikely Joshua gasses that quickly and even if that is the scenario no guarantee Parker is in good enough shape to finish him after being hurt himself.

    I think parker can outlast him... but I think it wouldn't be tell the 9th 10th or 11th... 4 5 6 is abit early.

    I think that will be Barry's game plan. Parker will need to be fit and evasive in order to survive to the middle rounds and find out if he can gas Joshua.

    Joshua got up from getting poleaxed by wlad to finish it in the 12th, parker ain't got that power.
